Cash deposit instructions for certain steel nails from the United Arab Emirates (A-520-804)

Plain-English explanation

CSMS 7262308 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin (trade policy), published on September 19, 2017. It carries the official CBP guidance brokers and importers must follow for the topic — "Cash deposit instructions for certain steel nails from the United Arab Emirates (A-520-804)". It links to 1 AD/CVD case in Tandom's catalog. CSMS messages are the operational layer between Commerce determinations and at-the-border collections: when Commerce publishes a new rate, scope ruling, or instruction, CBP turns it into a CSMS that ACE/ACS systems and brokers act on.

Message body

Full text as published by U.S. Customs and Border Protection

1. Commerce has published in the Federal Register (82 FR 43219) on 09/14/2017 the final results of its administrative review of certain producers and/or exporters subject to the antidumping duty order on certain steel nails from the United Arab Emirates for the period 05/01/2015 through 04/30/2016. 2. As a result of Commerce's review, the cash deposit rates have been revised for certain companies. Therefore, for shipments of certain steel nails from the United Arab Emirates produced and/or exported by the firm listed below, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 09/14/2017, the required cash deposit has been revised: Producer and/or Exporter: Overseas Distribution Services Inc. Case number: A-520-804-004 Cash deposit rate: 184.41% 3. If any entries of merchandise are exported by a firm other than the producer, then the following instructions apply: A. If the exporter of the subject merchandise has its own rate, use the exporter's rate to determine the cash deposit rate. B. If the exporter of the subject merchandise does not have its own rate but the producer has its own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the producer's rate. C. Where neither the exporter nor the producer currently has its own rate or the producer is unknown, use the all-others rate for establishing the cash deposit rate. 4. For all producers/exporters of certain steel nails from the United Arab Emirates without their own rate, the cash deposit rate is 4.30% percent. 5. These cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice. Do not liquidate any entries of merchandise covered by the administrative review until specific liquidation instructions are issued. 6. If there are any questions by the importing public regarding this message, please contact the Call Center for the Office of AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce at (202) 482-0984. CBP ports should submit their inquiries through authorized CBP channels only. (This message was generated by OV: AC.) 7. There are no restrictions on the release of this information. Alexander Amdur

Frequently asked questions

What is CSMS 7262308?

CSMS 7262308 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin titled "Cash deposit instructions for certain steel nails from the United Arab Emirates (A-520-804)". CSMS bulletins are the operational instructions CBP issues to brokers, importers, and ACE filers covering rate changes, system updates, scope guidance, and other day-to-day customs-operations changes.

When was CSMS 7262308 published?

CBP published CSMS 7262308 on September 19, 2017. The bulletin's instructions are typically operative as of the publication date unless the body specifies a different effective date.

Which AD/CVD cases does CSMS 7262308 affect?

Is the CBP CSMS the legally binding instruction?

Yes — for at-the-border filing and entry collection. CSMS messages translate Commerce's Federal Register determinations into operational CBP instructions that ACE/ACS systems and brokers execute. The Federal Register notice is the underlying legal authority; the CSMS is the operational implementation. Both should be read together when reconciling a rate or scope change.
